INNOVATION IN WATER PURIFICATION AND WASTEWATER-BASED EPIDEMIOLOGY

WASTEWATER-BASED EPIDEMIOLOGY
The importance of WBE in detecting outbreaks in the early stages

THE NEED FOR WBE

The Covid pandemic has shown: we need more and better ways to monitor and control outbreaks. Wastewater-Based Epidemiology (WBE) is a powerful way to achieve this. As pathogens like SARS-CoV-2 are excreted by the human body, they can be detected in local sewage systems. Whether it is infectious diseases, drug abuse or microbial resistance , WBE is a great tool for additional surveillance and as an early warning system.

Find out how our products enable the implementation
of WBE programs.
